About Nonprofit Bylaws

CLEO’s Bylaw Builder helps nonprofits develop a set of bylaws that comply with Ontario’s Not-for-Profit Corporations Act (ONCA).

It asks you questions, explains what your choices are, and includes information to help you decide. Then, based on your answers, it generates a set of bylaws for your nonprofit.

The Bylaw Builder is free to use and all text has been legally reviewed.
